Sony Chases Xbox One Discount in UK

Sony Chases Xbox One Discount in UK

For a while, the Xbox One was cheaper than the PS4 in the UK. The Xbox One has seen pretty horrendous sales in that territory, and reducing the price was a good way to increase the fanbase.

Well Sony isn’t one to be outdone, and as such has provided their own discount. A brand new PS4 bundle has been made available, which can be purchased for £330. It includes a copy of FIFA 15 , the best-selling sports game in UK territories, and retails for a whole £20.

Microsoft’s bundle is similar, in that it costs the exact same amount and offers the same discount, but instead is bundled with Sunset Overdrive . Note that the Sunset Overdrive bundle does not come with a Kinect.

The Xbox One has always been the more expensive of the two next-generation consoles, and that is definitely holding it back. The console launched at a £425 price point initially. This bundle was the first time the console undercut the PS4, however it did not last long.

Both Sony and Microsoft have announced that these bundles and discounts are temporary and neither has announced a similar bundle for U.S. markets.
